Snowboards comparison — 2026-2027 season
How they compare
Both boards are designed for freestyle and all mountain riding. They share a directional twin shape — mostly twin with a slight directional bias—versatile for all-mountain and some switch. The Armada Beatnik has a hybrid (camber/rocker) profile (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile), while the Armada Blueprint uses camber (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise). The Armada Beatnik is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the medium range. At $459.95 vs $579.95 MSRP, the Armada Blueprint is the more budget-friendly option.
